Q What was the first Technicolor movie? Who were the stars?

A Technicolor is the trademark name for a color process invented by Herbert Kalmus and Daniel Comstock during World War I. They made the first movie in the process, ''The Gulf Between,'' in 1917 but names of the players aren't listed. The inventors kept improving the process and, in 1926, it was used for ''The Black Pirate'' starring Douglas Fairbanks Sr. But color was expensive and not entirely satisfactory. It wasn't until 1932 that Technicolor evolved into better color and cost less. ''Becky Sharp'' starring Miriam Hopkins in 1935 in Technicolor marks the beginning of the modern color era.
